Haha, he's been reading that at the airport? Stylish choice. With the amount of time he's had there by now, he should have been able to make it through quite a few of the Russian classics. Hope he realises that he'd better get on with the language studies!

Yeah, he's safe if he stays in Russia. But I think he wants to keep leaking so he may go to South America someday.
His lawyer, Kucherena, brought him some books to read and that one was so perfect, lol! I think he has Nikolai Karamzin's history books and some books by Anton Chekhov too. He will have lots to read!

Noooo! Please don't tell me what happens! I started reading it yesterday and I've only read the first 2 chapters. But it's a really cool book! And I like history too so I'm going to look for the Karamzin, Russian States books too. I've studied a lot of Russian history this summer already but there's still more I want to know.
But yeah, if anything happens to Snowden, he won't be going to any prison willingly.
Btw, I like Dostoevsky's writing style. He was kinda heavy on the dialogue but he had an awesome way of pulling the reader into the book with his scenery and narratives. And he was good at building suspense.
